Few, if any, races offer refunds to entrants who sign up early, but then find out that are unable to participate on race day.

Race Directors use early registrations as a tool to project the total number of participants and base their spending
on items that need to be ordered well in advance of race day on the number of early registrations. (Expenses such
as T-Shirts, goodie bag items, port-a-potties, etc.) Thus, refunding entry fees for no-shows, which average 15% at
most races these days can wreck race budgets --- or if the RD assumes a 15% no-show rate and under-orders
T-Shirts, can leave the RD short on race morning, hurting the race in the eyes of the participants.

Thus 3C Race Productions has adopted the following, liberal refund policy:

Runners who request a refund more than 60 days prior to the event will receive a refund in the amount
of the pre-entry fee minus $1.00. (On-line registrants will NOT receive a refund for the Active.com fee.)

Runners who request a refund between 60 days and 14 days prior to the event will receive a coupon
good for any other 3CRP event* . The coupon will be valid for 1 year.

Does not include entry to events 3CRP produces for outside organizations such as the Eastern Bank Flutie 5K

Runners will not receive a refund if they do not request the refund at least 14 days prior to the event.
